## What the research found

| Topic | Status | Finding | Open question | Sources |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Plan and modules | Public claim only | The pricing page describes Starter, Pro and Enterprise. Enterprise adds unlimited documents, SSO, API access, help building playbooks, guided onboarding, a dedicated success manager, and the option of custom contract terms. A seven-day trial requires a credit card and becomes the selected subscription unless cancelled. No dollar amount was in the text retrieved. | Which plan is quoted, what happens when the trial ends, and which security terms are available only on Enterprise? | [BlackBoiler — pricing](https://blackboiler.com/pricing) |
| Deployment and hosting | Not confirmed | The product runs in Microsoft Word and in the customer's account. No hosting region, cloud provider or Australian region is stated. | Where are contracts and playbooks stored and processed, and is an Australian region available? | [BlackBoiler — home](https://blackboiler.com/) |
| Product surfaces | Public claim only | The homepage says BlackBoiler turns playbooks, prior redlines, approved language and examples into first-pass tracked changes and comments in Microsoft Word. A reviewer accepts, changes, rejects, escalates or negotiates. Veris is a conversational assistant inside Word for turning a plain-language position into playbook guidance and for asking questions about a clause. The homepage says US patents cover document revision, playbook-driven markup and clause handling. | Which agreement types are in scope for our playbooks, and is Veris included? | [BlackBoiler — home](https://blackboiler.com/) |
| Jurisdiction and legal content | Not confirmed | The pages read on 2026-10-10 (the BlackBoiler homepage and pricing page) do not state a position on jurisdiction and legal content. | What is the written position on jurisdiction and legal content for the deployment we would buy, and which contract or policy states it? | [BlackBoiler — home](https://blackboiler.com/) |
| Licence and pricing unit | Public claim only | Enterprise pricing is not a fixed per-user rate. Factors named are contract volume, users and teams, playbooks and agreement types, and security, deployment and support. Starter and Pro exist but no currency amount was in the page text. The trial needs a credit card and converts unless cancelled. | Send the checkout price, billing frequency, trial end date and first payment date for the plan you recommend, in the currency we would be billed. | [BlackBoiler — pricing](https://blackboiler.com/pricing) |
| Integrations | Public claim only | Review runs in Microsoft Word. The homepage says BlackBoiler fits the redlining step of an existing CLM and hands back once the lawyer decides. Enterprise includes SSO and API access. | Which CLM and identity provider are supported, and what does the API read or write? | [BlackBoiler — home](https://blackboiler.com/); [BlackBoiler — pricing](https://blackboiler.com/pricing) |
| Support and service levels | Not confirmed | The pages read on 2026-10-10 (the BlackBoiler homepage and pricing page) do not state a position on support and service levels. | What is the written position on support and service levels for the deployment we would buy, and which contract or policy states it? | [BlackBoiler — home](https://blackboiler.com/) |
| Independent quality evidence | Public claim only | The homepage says the technology is patented, that the company has focused on this since 2019, and that it received an NSF SBIR award and a 2021 AI Breakthrough award. No independent accuracy study or Australian test is cited. | Can we test our own agreements during the seven-day trial, and what error types should we record? | [BlackBoiler — home](https://blackboiler.com/) |
| Task fit | Public claim only | The homepage limits current materials to recurring types, naming NDAs, service agreements and subcontracts, and says more complex contracts depend on playbook coverage. Output is a first pass. The lawyer reviews exceptions. It says a person does not need to be a lawyer to run the tool, and that a lawyer reviews the redline before anything moves forward. | Which of our agreement types have enough prior redlines for a useful first pass, and who is the required reviewer? | [BlackBoiler — home](https://blackboiler.com/) |
| Client authority and client-facing use | Public claim only | The homepage says positions remain proprietary to the organisation and are not used to improve the product for other companies. It does not discuss a client's consent to upload their contract. | What do we tell a client before their draft is uploaded, and can a client be excluded? | [BlackBoiler — home](https://blackboiler.com/) |
| Model providers | Not confirmed | The homepage says the review is built on the customer's standards rather than a general-purpose model from a prompt. It does not name a model provider. Veris accepts natural language. | Which models, if any, process the contract and the Veris conversation, and where? | [BlackBoiler — home](https://blackboiler.com/) |
| Subprocessors | Not confirmed | No subprocessor list was on the pages read. | Provide the subprocessor list for hosting and for any model used by Veris or the redline engine. | [BlackBoiler — home](https://blackboiler.com/) |
| Training on customer content | Public claim only | The homepage says client data is not used to train models shared with other users, and that contracts, playbooks, redlines and negotiation positions are not used to train models or to improve BlackBoiler for other companies. It also says the review starts from the customer's standards rather than a general-purpose model working from a prompt. | Will the no-training statement be in our agreement, including for any subprocessors and for Veris prompts? | [BlackBoiler — home](https://blackboiler.com/) |
| Feedback and secondary use | Not confirmed | The pages read on 2026-10-10 (the BlackBoiler homepage and pricing page) do not state a position on feedback and secondary use. | What is the written position on feedback and secondary use for the deployment we would buy, and which contract or policy states it? | [BlackBoiler — home](https://blackboiler.com/) |

| Assurance and certifications | Public claim only | The homepage and the pricing page say a SOC 2 report is available under NDA. The FAQ on the homepage calls it a SOC 2 Type II report. The report was not read. | Provide the current SOC 2 Type II report under NDA, including the period and whether Word processing is in scope. | [BlackBoiler — home](https://blackboiler.com/); [BlackBoiler — pricing](https://blackboiler.com/pricing) |
| Contract, DPA and liability | Public claim only | The pricing page says Enterprise can use custom contract terms and service levels rather than a fixed plan.
